Demand that UE cuts subsidies to racist parties

The British coalition 'Hope not hate' has demanded from the European Union to cut all funding to racist parties confederated in the European Alliance of Nationalist Movements (EANM-AEMN). Notable among them are the Hungarian Nazi party Jobbik, the French National Front, the Bulgarian Ataka and the Greek Golden Dawn.

With help of EMPs from the Labor Party they are proposing to the European Parliament to cut all funding to these formations on the grounds of the rule 210 that demands from all parties "respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, state of law and respect for Human Rights, including the right of individuals to belong to minorities".
